Design evolution for the Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope
Will Saunders, Corentin Cudennec, Roland Bacon +4
WST is proposed as the next large ESO project to follow ELT, combining Multi-Object Spectroscopy and Integral Field Spectroscopy. Each mode offers order-of-magnitude gains over cur…
Progress of the design of the 12-m optical, Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST)
P. Dierickx, G. Gausachs, C. Cudennec +16
The Wide-Field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a 12-m class, Alt-Az optical telescope providing two simultaneous foci, 2 degrees and 3 by 3 arc minutes respectively, for Multi-Obj…
Sustainability as a design parameter in the early development of the Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope
L. Fréour, E. Burtin, R. Bacon +13
The paper describes how sustainability is being incorporated into the early design of the Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope by using life‑cycle assessments to evaluate the carbon…
WST -- Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope: The Next Leap in Wide-field Spectroscopy
Roland Bacon, Olga Bellido, Philippe Dierickx +53
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a concept for a dedicated 12-m spectroscopic survey facility designed to address some of the most important questions in astrophysic…
WST, the wide-field spectroscopic telescope: progress on the design of the instruments
David Lee, Joel Vernet, Elizabeth George +47
WST, the Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope is a proposed new facility that will provide a transformational gain in spectroscopic survey capability over existing facilities. The WS…
WST, the Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope: Telescope structure FE analyses
Simone D'Auria, Vincenzo Cianniello, Ciro Del Vecchio +6
The Altitude Structure of the Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is designed to support and position both primary and secondary mirrors, made of structural steel. Due to its…
